The Bad Phenomenon Of The Terminal Block And The Effect On The Insulator

Publish Time: Author: Site Editor Visit: 632

The metal conductor inside the terminal block is the core part of the terminal block. It transmits the voltage, current or signal from the external wire or cable to the contact corresponding to the corresponding connector. Therefore, the contact must have excellent structure, stable and reliable contact retention force and good conductivity. Due to the unreasonable structural design of contact parts, wrong material selection, unstable mold, over tolerance of processing size, rough surface, unreasonable surface treatment process such as heat treatment and electroplating, improper assembly, bad storage and use environment and improper operation, poor contact will be caused at the contact parts and matching parts of the contact parts. The plastic insulating materials and conductive parts of the terminal are directly related to the quality of the terminal, which determine the insulation and conductivity of the terminal respectively. The failure of any terminal will lead to the failure of the whole system engineering. This is a very painful lesson at home and abroad. The function of the terminal insulator is to keep the contacts in the correct position and to insulate the contacts and the shell from each other. Therefore, the insulating parts must have excellent electrical performance, mechanical performance and molding performance. Especially with the wide use of high density and miniaturized terminals, the effective wall thickness of insulator is becoming thinner and thinner. The terminal blocks put forward more stringent requirements for insulation materials, injection mold precision and molding process. Due to the existence of metal surplus on the surface or inside of insulator, surface dust, flux pollution and moisture, organic material precipitation and harmful gas adsorption film and surface water film fusion to form ionic conductive channel, moisture absorption, mildew growth, insulation material aging and other reasons, will cause short circuit, electric leakage, breakdown, low insulation resistance and poor insulation phenomenon. The terminal insulator not only has the function of insulation, but also provides accurate neutralization protection for the extended contact, and also has the functions of installation, positioning, locking and fixing on the equipment. Poor fixation, light impact on contact reliability, resulting in instant power failure, serious is product disintegration. Disassembly refers to the abnormal separation between plug and socket and between pin and socket due to unreliable structure due to material, design, process and other reasons when the terminal is in the plug-in state, which will cause serious consequences of power transmission and signal control interruption of control system. Due to unreliable design, wrong selection of terminal material, improper selection of molding process, poor process quality of heat treatment, mold, assembly, welding, etc., and assembly is not in place, which will cause poor fixation. In addition, poor appearance due to coating peeling, corrosion, bruise, plastic shell flash, fracture, rough contact processing, terminal deformation and other reasons, as well as poor interchangeability caused by positioning and locking fit size, poor consistency of processing quality, excessive total separation force and other reasons are also common diseases. These kinds of faults can be found and eliminated in time in the process of inspection and use.
